  • Phosphate Transporters of the SLC20 and SLC34 Families
    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2013 Phosphate transporters of the SLC20 and SLC34 families Forster, Ian C ; Hernando, Nati ; Biber, Jürg ; Murer, Heini Abstract: Transport of inorganic phosphate (Pi) across the plasma membrane is essential for normal cellular function. Members of two families of SLC proteins (SLC20 and SLC34) act as Na(+)-dependent, secondary-active cotransporters to transport Pi across cell membranes. The SLC34 proteins are ex- pressed in specific organs important for Pi homeostasis: NaPi-IIa (SLC34A1) and NaPi-IIc (SLC34A3) fulfill essential roles in Pi reabsorption in the kidney proximal tubule and NaPi-IIb (SLC34A2) medi- ates Pi absorption in the gut. The SLC20 proteins, PiT-1 (SLC20A1), PiT-2 (SLC20A2) are expressed ubiquitously in all tissues and although generally considered as ”housekeeping” transport proteins, the discovery of tissue-specific activity, regulatory pathways and gene-related pathophysiologies, is redefining their importance. This review summarizes our current knowledge of SLC20 and SLC34 proteins in terms of their basic molecular characteristics, physiological roles, known pathophysiology and pharmacology.

The green line (x=260) represents the DMD largest connected component, obtaining a z-score=8.9. Figure S3. Shared genes between BMD and DMD signature. A) A meta-analysis of three microarray datasets (GSE3307, GSE13608 and GSE109178) was performed for the identification of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in BMD muscle biopsies as compared to normal muscle biopsies. Briefly, the GSE13608 dataset included 6 samples of skeletal muscle biopsy from healthy people and 5 samples from BMD patients. Biopsies were taken from either biceps brachii, triceps brachii or deltoid. The GSE3307 dataset included 17 samples of skeletal muscle biopsy from healthy people and 10 samples from BMD patients. The GSE109178 dataset included 14 samples of controls and 11 samples from BMD patients. For both GSE3307 and GSE10917 datasets, biopsies were taken at the time of diagnosis and from the vastus lateralis. For the meta-analysis of GSE13608, GSE3307 and GSE109178, a random effects model of effect size measure was used to integrate gene expression patterns from the two datasets. Genes with an adjusted p value (FDR) < 0.05 and an │effect size│>2 were identified as DEGs and selected for further analysis. A significant number of DEGs (p<0.001) were in common with the DMD signature genes (blue nodes), as determined by a hypergeometric test assessing the significance of the overlap between the BMD DEGs and the number of DMD signature genes B) MCODE analysis of the overlapping genes between BMD DEGs and DMD signature genes.

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated.

Among these, several solute carrier proteins (SLCs), representing the largest group of transporters, are still orphan and lack functional characterization. We reasoned that assessing genetic interactions among SLCs may be an efficient way to obtain functional information allowing their deorphanization. Here we describe a network of strong genetic interactions indicating a contribution to mitochondrial respiration and redox metabolism for SLC25A51/MCART1, an uncharacterized member of the SLC25 family of transporters. Through a combination of metabolomics, genomics and genetics approaches, we demonstrate a role for SLC25A51 as enabler of mitochondrial import of NAD, showcasing the potential of genetic interaction- driven functional gene deorphanization. 1 CeMM Research Center for Molecular Medicine of the Austrian Academy of Sciences, Vienna, Austria. 2 Laboratory of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, Department of Biosciences, Biotechnologies and Biopharmaceutics,

Glomerular development has been analyzed mainly in mice, whereas analysis of human kidney development has been minimal because of limited access to embryonic kidneys. We previously reported the induction of three-dimensional primordial glomeruli from human induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. Here, using transcription activator–like effector nuclease-mediated homologous recombination, we generated human iPS cell lines that express green fluorescent protein (GFP) in the NPHS1 locus, which encodes nephrin, and we show that GFP expression facilitated accurate visualization of nephrin-positive podocyte formation in

Meningiomas are among the most common primary adult brain tumors. Although typically benign, roughly 2%–5% display malignant pathological features. The key molecular pathways involved in malignant trans- formation remain to be determined. Methods. Illumina expression microarrays were used to assess gene expression levels, and Illumina single- nucleotide polymorphism arrays were used to identify copy number variants in benign, atypical, and malignant me- ningiomas (19 tumors, including 4 malignant ones). The authors also reanalyzed 2 expression data sets generated on Affymetrix microarrays (n = 68, including 6 malignant ones; n = 56, including 3 malignant ones).
